The largest audience is going to be people watching the speech, not social media or Dem responses after. Letting him lie over and over while Congress cheers him is bad optics for Democrats.

And letting him lie with no pushback is how we got here. They have a chance to call him out to his face in front of the whole country. Instead they are going to fact check him on social media? That’s weak.
How we got here was letting ‘fake news’ be a thing. Letting him call his opinions ‘truths’. Letting citizens united fund campaigns. How we got here were the Democrats not wanting to rock their OWN apple cart. Democrats need to reach out to the people directly and NOT be performative.
No. He will talk over them and use MTG ect to cause drama. This is not a TV show. This fucker is killing people. Right now. So nobody let alone Dems should be at this fuckers anything.
This is not working anymore. The Dems will just reach the bubble that knows.
One thing he wants is indeed attention. But he wants power and feel it, too. A passive protest isn't going to help anything any longer. If this isn't going to active resistance soon. I promise you'll have him for life.

Having the live feed and watching the entire group of Dems walk out the door would be HUGE and be bad optics as they hold a press conference outside. Media will be wanting to watch them speak to find out why.
That I could get behind. Take the air out of the room is the objective and let Mr. Tantrum go. But they need a compelling message once our there - they can’t simply be performative
I’m debating, part of me feels a duty to watch it so I can say there’s no spin it’s my own take. The other part wants to skip for my mental health since he’s so abhorrent.
